schools of fish week #2

«Schools of fish week» now clearly steered into retro-direction with this very old image I took in French Polynesia using compact camera Olympus 3040 with whopping 3 megapixels resolution in May of 2006. One of the goals of the new format «week of …» is to explore my photo archive, to find new dimensions and patterns within collection, rethink some of old image presentations and to apply new advanced software to less than perfect data captured in difficult conditions.

I used to have collection of images like this which I called «Nitrogen trip». I really like to think about these experiences as form of meditation when human being is not just getting close to nature but literally surrounded by it, merged within.

On that particular dive I’ve seen biggest school of fish in my life. Current in Tiputa Pass was very strong, and it took us through 2 minutes flight through endless cloud of predatory fish each of each was at least half-meter long. I will never forget this experience — and I hope to come back to Rangiroa, one of the world’s biggest atolls, very soon — it’s been overdue for too long — I need to take SLR camera where finally !🙂
